    Greenard is probably the only one they couldn't move on from next year if they don't work out. I might rather have had Frankie Luvu instead of both Cashman and Ginkel though. He got 36M total; no breakdown available. Not that I'm complaining.
  2. nicksaviking
    Don't you at least get 3/4ths of a run if you get the guy over to 3rd?

    So I was making my own notes a couple weeks back (for my dynasty league) and decided there were seven teams with severe RB needs. Bal, Cle, LV, LAC, Dal, NYG and MIN. Six of the top free agent running backs signed today, and only the Giants from my list signed one. Makes me think someone is going to overpay Derrick Henry, as the next best guys after him are probably Ekler and now Aaron Jones, both of whom looked to be done last year. There's going to be some pretty unsexy starting RBs in the league next season.

    And Kyle Farmer had almost the same OPS at the majors as Lee did at AAA last year. I'm looking forward to seeing Lee, but it's not like it's a stone cold fact he's better than Farmer.
  5. nicksaviking
    He's not a good QB, he can only run. I don't see O'Connell thinking he's an answer.
  6. nicksaviking
    Sure, but there's next to no chance Fields will be a Viking, so I could care less how terrible he is. And I DO know what I got. A wildly inconsistent team that will never win a championship if they stick to the current path.
  7. nicksaviking
    I hope he does. What does that matter?

    I'm now curious about this new defense. Van Ginkel was mostly an interior LB last year as was Cashman. Is Pace out along with Hicks? Otherwise, if he's going to play edge, it seem similar to Greenard. Should be interesting.
  9. nicksaviking
    Wow, didn't expect the Vikings to be this active today. Cashman looks like a younger Hicks replacement. Works for me. Three front seven defensive players. I was hoping for interior OL, but the defense is making strides already.

    Antonio Gibson is going to New England on a three year deal. That would have been my top 'cheap' RB free agent, but if he's getting three years, it probably wasn't cheap after all.
  11. nicksaviking
    Spoke too soon, the incumbent is being release. Aaron Jones is going Aaway.
  12. nicksaviking
    Two edge rushers? Interesting. As much as I'd like to, we can probably cross that off the early round draft list. ;
  13. nicksaviking
    If he's not, you just try again until you get it right. This is what I want: This frustrating organization hasn't had back-to-back 10 win seasons since 2009, which was the last time they were a legit contender, and they haven't been a consistent contender since Fran Tarkenton was here.
  14. nicksaviking
    Good for Kirk, but that wouldn't have interested me. To get to a consistent level of being a contender, this team needs to invest that money to invest in too many other areas.
  15. nicksaviking
    Rue not giving a 4 year deal to an injured 36-year-old? Seems unlikely. I'm sure Atlanta will be much improved, but probably no better off than the Vikings were at their best with him. I'm seriously not trying to rip Cousins as much as the organization, but they won one playoff game in his six years. What is there it rue?
  16. nicksaviking
    Packers sign Josh Jacobs. Good to see they have two washed up RBs to hand the ball off to.
  17. nicksaviking
    Cousins to Atlanta. It wasn't very fruitful, but it was fun. Good luck to him. Not the Falcons though, no luck to them.
  18. nicksaviking
    Two good interior OL have gone. Lloyd Cushenberry and Tyler Biadasz. I hadn't looked into the players available too deeply, but these two did stand out. The Vikings re-signed Quesenberry and Brandel. I really hope they don't think they can keep moving forward with all these spare parts. They need actual good players on the interior.
  19. nicksaviking
    He's going to the dysfunctional Raiders though, so two years from now after they cut him and eat something like 20M in doing so, we can take another look.
  20. nicksaviking
    I liked Greenard actually. He had the 6th highest Win Rate in the league last year. He might not put up Hunters numbers, but he's much younger. Still, have to hammer the interior OL now. And I'm not sure what they should do with the interior DL.
  21. nicksaviking
    Russell Wilson has turned me off a bit, but I do like Pittsburgh and Tomlin. People started to question Belichick after he didn't do so well after Brady left, I still don't understand why people haven't yet started wondering if Brees was the reason for Payton's success. Maybe he wasn't, but it certainly should be considered a possibility.
  22. nicksaviking
    I really don't care who the 'mentor' QB is, but I think if the Vikings move into the top 10 for McCarthy, he's got to start right away. Taking advantage of the rookie contracts for QBs is the biggest advantage in the game. And Bo Nix is 24 already. If he needs a year to sit (which I don't think he does), I'm not sure he should be considered. A veteran for the back up role would be fine, but not a bridge QB. Rattler is 23, but he does interest me while still being pretty raw. He'd be the one I'd look at for the sit-a-year approach. And I'd take him over Pennix. He'd be my QB six at this time.
  23. nicksaviking
    Minor league ERA doesn't really do much for me, seems strikeout rates and walk rates tend to be more indicative if the player's stuff will translate. Still not sure that it will. Either way, I'm less concerned with when this team will need a 5th starter than when they'll need a 2nd starter, which they're still lacking from my perspective.
  24. nicksaviking
    From my perspective, whatever the reason, the less wear and tear is the Twins gain.
  25. nicksaviking
    I’m expecting him to stay at 2B, but seems the most likely outcome for permanent promotion is the 1B situation underperforming.
